Moving on

We have completed our project #2. Time to move on with the new stuffs from Flash, and project #3, and a research paper(what a nightmare.....). I really hate to write essay, but since it's a requirement, i have to do it :p

Project 2

Well just like some other students, project two was a complete nightmare. I originally thought it was going to be easy to do, but this project took a lot of work and time. For the most part the most frustrating thing about project two was setting up the div tags, and setting up the alignments. I thought everything was fine and set up correctly at first, but then when its opened up in the browser you come to realize that its not where its suppose to be. In addition to all of this I realized that it is extremely critical to pay attention to the resolution of the screen you are working with and I realized this a little too late. Today I was looking over my project and realized that the way I seen one of my links on my monitor looks completely different on the school monitors, the good thing is that it only happened with one of the links. Well I am glad that project 2 is something in the past; it was a project that was challenging and through trial and error I obtained a better understanding. Today’s exercise was fun and interesting and I am ready to learn more about Adobe Flash.

Project 2

I was happy with the final look of project 2 until I opened it test it on the Firefox browser. The images were spaced out vertically. Professor Anderson said it may be the way Firefox or I.E. reading the AP elements as links. I'm going to try over spring break to adjust it without destroying it or having to start all over. Is anyone familiar with this problem or has anyone ever heard of this?

I wish we had more time for project 2 but I am looking forward to project 3.

Excersise 9

Also, I would like to say that I really enjoyed exercise 9. It was a refreshing, fun assignment to take my mind off the project 2 stress. I want adobe flash to play around with it all the time.

Project 2

I didn't realize that the deadline for this project would catch me off guard. I was so far behind working on it. I pretty much did the majority of work on the day it was due. Whew. For our final project, I need to work on it A LOT more and manage my time wisely. Even though I had a minor freak out while doing this project, I thought it was really cool and it turned out pretty good. Im going to start brainstorming for the final project now!

Project 2

Project two was pretty agonizing to work on. I had trouble lining up the AP Elements on the pages at different resolutions. The only thing that really bugged me about AP Elements was going into the behaviors window and setting the show/hide settings for each AP Element. Overall, however, I really did like AP Elements because they add more style to a website than regular HTML.

all hell is breaking loose... i missed class last thursday... and the project is past due. i have a lot of work to do tonight. it feels like i am keeping up mostly, but appearently i am falling farther and farther behind all the time. i don't even realize when the quizes are due, there are no reminders and they just pass by without me noticing. some reminders would be nice...

well, its time to buckle down and get to work. i have some catching up to do!
